Honey_Bear

Secret Santa package arrived this morning, along with a jiffy bag of cards. Thank you so much, Cycling Yorkie and Natty for organising those. Lovely.

Helen Jelly, I hope Christmas and New Year brings some joy in the Jelly Household, and that Mr J gets some answers and relief from the pain. Hugs.

Valli - how lovely for you! Excellent news on the Valli kids front, and huge congratulations about work. 10 out of 10, gold star for you.

Wrapping happening here, and I've decided to write another four cards. They're people I would mind losing touch with and don't see very often, so as they've been kind enough to send me a card, it's not a time of year to feel mean and not sending these would leave me feeling as though I'd let them down.

Just want to apologise for my failure to get cards sorted for the swap....I haven't finished writing cards for family yet and my mother in law ended up addressing at posting the ones I have done. Youngest has been poorly and I've just not had the energy to get a lot of my list done, I'm also 2 weeks behind with study and now going to have to write my assignment while kids are off school.

Pleased to hear your cat has improved natty x
